Among all the SDCC 2024 announcements and news was an update from Kotobukiya on the SNK Bishoujo Leona Heidern figure based on her KOF ’97 appearance. This time a full painted prototype appeared, showing off the near final design of the warrior ahead of her eventual worldwide debut.
Here’s the latest announcement. This is a painted prototype. However, as this is a paint master reveal, it could still vary from the final release.
To compare and show the progress on the Leona Heidern SNK Bishoujo figure, Kotobukiya last showed it off during Anime Expo 2024. At that time, only the full color Shunya Yamashita concept art appeared.
One thing that remained the same since the Anime Expo 2024 and SDCC 2024 peeks at the character is the pre-order launch date. Kotobukiya said orders will open in Summer 2024. There’s no launch window for the final figure yet.
Another SNK Bishoujo entry is also on the way in 2024. Back in February 2024, Kotobukiya announced Angel would be a part of the lineup. She’s expected to launch between November 2024 and January 2025.
The SNK Bishoujo Leona Heidern figure is in development, with pre-orders opening in Summer 2024 ahead of its eventual release.
